The Mind Of OverlordTomala

Today was our final day in the holy city of Cyantology. Tomorrow we set course for our half point. Today we had a tasty brunch, then we went to the cemetery to visit my grandmothers and even find some old neighbors buried there. Shopping followed afterwards, but nothing really special. Well that’s a lie… Tor’i did give me birthday presents that she had been slacking on. A beaded bracelet and a matching set of red peace sign earrings and peace sign necklace. Overall a real calm day.

Now it’s dinner time. 8)

Yesterday was my relaxing day. Today I had a blast at Mysterium. I recorded some footage but that’ll have to wait until I get home from Spokane, I brought the wrong firewire cable. We had hotdogs at the convention. I met Fallstar, saw Marten again, Greydragon was there, Ocelot, Jane, Alah, Eleri, JUNE and LARRY!!!! Rand (Duh), Pigbristles, dadguy, zib, Adnil and so many others. Oh! I saw Kierra with no Zandi’s behind her, and she didn’t drool all over Rand. She did make a beautiful looking cake. I was impressed with all the effort she put into it.

They had good food there. Talked nerd with Dadguy for awhile with the evil Papa Smurf. Talked with June and Larry outside for awhile, surprised the hell out of Dalken, Mystdee and several others (not having a nametag can make things fun).

Everyone loved our hats. Eleri was nice and showed me their Mysterium cookbook. Everyone was great!

I found out some other ineteresting news that’s unrelated. But that can wait until I get home.

Yet another nice day passed today. I went to visit my Auntie, then my uncle. Took home some giant zucchini straight from Auntie Kay’s garden.

Went back to the secret bunker I’m staying at. I had a few shots of vodka. And then we had some hot wings and blue cheese with grilled zucchini on the side. omnom.

Good to see Shelby and Woody again. Shelby is the dark one and Woody is the light one. Woody likes to sleep on his back. O_o

I’m sleeping in the art room on a futon. At night when I turn off the lights I can see stars on the ceiling. Kinda reminds me of that one room from Myst. I tried taking pictures but they didn’t turn out right.

Here is that cheongsam I was talking about. Can’t wait to turn it into a shirt!

And here is the decorative teapot that Aunt Tor’i fixed for me. It was usable at one point in time, but when she was getting ready to ship the teaset to me the teapot had an accident. Still. Nice decoration worthy of the Overlord’s living quarters.

Anyway… If you can’t tell things are going good. Not sure what we’re doing tomorrow. But I’m sure it’ll be fun.

The next waking day wasn’t so bad. When we were leaving we got a discount on our room because they don’t know anything about their pricing system. And while we took luggage back out to the car we found a little friend outside.

The weather was REAL hot today. And during one of our stops I just HAD to take a picture of this:

Still trying to figure that one out… Anyway we made it safely to Spokane. My Aunt has given me a pretty gold Cheongsam that was made in Japan. I’m going to have it turned into a shirt! Very beautiful though. I’ll post pictures tomorrow.

I thought of some of you today… And yesterday but forgot to post about it. When passing through the town named Florence I thought to myself “Was this town named after a boy or a girl? And if it was a boy who in the hell would name their son Florence?” Yutram, that thought made me think of you. Then I saw cows which made me think of Hoikas. COWS!!! Too tired to think of anything else.

We had a great dinner tonight. It’s a tradition that whenever we stay with my Aunt and Uncle that we have a pasta dish on the first night. Oh, and straight shots. Overall it’s been nice.

Well I’m beat. I’m getting up tomorrow to go visit people on my mothers side of the family.

We made it to Madras today. Didn’t get followed by cops or hit any cars. Though they did come close to us a couple times today. We’re inland where it’s really HOT. Now we’re in a Best Western Hotel that doesn’t fit the overlord’s needs. The internet sucks ass, and the LAN cable isn’t even good enough for strangling the staff.

Will report in tomorrow evening.
